I genuinely love your sentiment. We have way too much faux asceticism and way too little self-mockery in this godforsaken industry that pays us all way too much money. Programming is wizardry. But being a professional one (a software engineer) is a ridiculous occupation we're coerced into. We all know this, otherwise Silicon Valley wouldn't have been a universally cathartic show. But GP is completely correct that all of the fun, magical projects in the OP article are antithetical to the profession. |

I guess I was emphasizing GP's point. The profession is the problem. Not the subject matter. I love computers.
